I have tried this place three times. Here are my three experiences…
1. Loud and drunk people on a Friday night. I walked in and walked out.
2. I entered on a Tuesday afternoon and it was relatively empty. Staff just looked at me like: “Who the hell is this guy?” I left.
3. Last night, which was a Wednesday. It was very odd because the light crowd made it feel like a VFW yet there was a bouncer at the door. Huh? Any place that has a bouncer is probably bad news if you just want to chill. I chose to roll with it anyway and when I asked the bartender if they had a drink menu, she placed a small sign in front of me with a QR Code for the menu. This shouldn’t be a big deal but this is why I left. I don’t go somewhere to have to use my phone. If I want a beer (or wine), I’m there to relax, not work. I was also in a dark corner of the bar, where it’s like being trapped in a corner. Btw, there was a drunk guy singing in the bathroom.
When at Kickback Jacks all the way in Mooresville, two people mentioned this place to me and how great it was. So, I think this is as “It’s me, not you” situation. The place should make sense in theory—it should be enjoyable when you look at it. In reality, it’s a no for me. I’ll stick to my favorite haunts (and find a new place to add so I have 3.5).
All that said, I still might pop in one more time during the day to confirm I don’t like it.
This review is subjective. Objectively, you might love it. For me, I have tried three times and have never felt an ounce of warmth from the atmosphere or from anyone. You gotta feel good walking into a place. If you don’t, then no matter how good it looks, it’s not your place.

I’ve eaten here 3 times and although the food is always great, the service has been slow every time.. even when it’s empty in here. The staff stand around talking with each other instead of actually checking on their tables. Food is priced well and tastes great.

The food is good and the place is cute but i've been twice and both times it feels like the staff pays zero attention to the customers. Both times I had to wait almost 20 min for a drink and had to ask for it a second time for them to grab it. Even when we were one of the only tables there. Just feels like both times I was there all of us were constantly looking around to see where our server was.

A very limited menu is my only suggestion. Food tastes more like reheated than cooked recently. The ambiance and wait staff were absolutely incredible. Bartenders are some of the best I have encountered and busted it the entire evening. An overall great experience.

If you haven’t tried Ed’s Tavern for brunch, you’re missing out!! The shrimp & grits - amazing! The service was outstanding (thank you, Brittany! ) & the management staff (Russell) TOP NOTCH! We will definitely be back & will be asking for Brittany! So attentive & personable!

Lake Norman's best sports bar. Alicia, Stacey, and Lauren are the best bartenders in the area and wings are even better than Al's!

My favorite hangout in Corntown. Food is excellent, great drink specials, great staff, best value anywhere in West Catawba.
Had an amazing time. Family friendly and great to meet up with friends as well. Food is awesome, drinks are better and the service is amazing. Alisha is wonderful!
